Hope after 2 miscarriages *pregnancy mentioned*

Hi everyone. I hope its okay to share my story here. I just want to give you hope that at the end of this dark tunnel there is light.

My journey of ttc started in September 2014. After just 2 months of trying I had a positive pregnancy test. Me and my husband were so excited we started planning our future with our little bean. I exprienced brown bleeding at 7 weeks but thought nothing of it. We went for a scan at 10 weeks but baby had no heartbeat and had stopped growing at 8 weeks :(
I had a surgical removal in December and we started trying again.
After 2 months I got my bfp in April 2015. We were so excited but so terrified. Unfortunately I began to have brown bleeding again and from then I knew it was all over. A scan confirmed that our little bean had stopped growing at 8 weeks. A few weeks later I naturally miscarried.
We decided to have a few months off from trying. We started trying again in December 2015 praying we'd catch quickly like the first 2 times. But it took us 8 months, every month seeing af would break my heart and made me doubt I'd ever get pregnant again.
Then in august 2016 we got our BFP!
I was over the moon but terrified at the same time. This time I decided to try Chinese/indian herbal medicine as the NHS refused to do anything as I had only experienced 2 losses. I was determined to try whatever I could. I began taking the medicine from when I found out I was pregnant.
Then at 11 weeks I began spotting brown blood. We were praying this wasn't the end. A scan confirmed that our little bean was still alive wriggling about. We were so happy this was the furthest I had ever gone in a pregnancy.
Since then I have had a healthy pregnancy thanks to God and I am currently 36 weeks pregnant hoping to meet my long awaited baby in 4 weeks time!

Never lose hope ladies and keep praying! I know how you feel as I was once in your position. Thanks for reading

I'm so sorry to hear of your previous heartache, thank you so much for taking the time to come back here and share your good news. Congratulations and I hope everything goes smoothly with the birth xxx

What a great story! I've also had three miscarriages, one at 9 weeks years ago, one at 12 weeks in Feb 2016 and a third one at 8 weeks in December. I started acupuncture and we intended to wait for a few months before we try again, but accidentally got pregnant just 5 weeks after my last D&C. I am terrified and anxious (now 8 weeks), but the Chinese herbs and acupuncture, as well as being signed off work and resting loads helps me to relax. I hope to get where you are this pregnancy. All the best for your delivery! :) xxx
